Fun facts about the movie Invictus. All movies have quirks and bloopers and this one is no exception. Here are a few things that happened, in the scene where madiba reads the newspaper about the coach and manager being fired the title says that they get fired but the actual article is about cricket teams. During the finals you see a player wearing Nike shoes that had not come out yet. It is shown that the first game Mandela attends was poorly attended but in reality it was sold out. Morgan freeman was a personal friend of nelson mendela.

Those are pretty interesting, I know there's been lots of historical movies that have factual errors. I know everyone I ask about Nelson Mandela they tell me about how much he looks like Morgan freedmen.
